Leadership Of the Islamic World And Islamic Jihad Is What Is At Stake
For Muslims By Col. Tom Snodgrass (Ret.), Right Side News
Enemy Belief System
Islam is divided into two primary sects. They are the Sunnis that
constitute 80-85% of the 1.6 billion Islamic followers worldwide and the Shia
that comprise 10-13% of the other adherents. There are additional component
factions of Islam such as the Sufi, Druze, Alawi, Alevi, and Ahmadiyya that
make up the remainder of the “umma,” or Islamic world community. But the
Islamic contingents that are in active war with the U.S. and Western
Civilization are the Sunni Salafi Wahhabis and the Shia Khomeinist Twelvers.
These two strains of Islam comprise an Islamic enemy that is dedicated to overthrowing the U.S. Constitution and replacing it with Islamic Sharia law. These Muslim sects both believe Islamic scripture mandates that Islamic Sharia theocratic-jurisprudence must supersede all man-conceived, secular-governmental-legal systems (i.e., democracy, communism, fascism, monarchy) because the Islamic Sharia-religious-legal system is based on divinely-revealed canons. Therefore, it cannot be subordinate to any human-conceptualized legal codes. So, according to Islamic scripture, no other legal system can coexist in the same physical territory at the same time with Islamic Sharia.
In order to install Sharia theocratic-jurisprudence in non-Muslim lands, Muslims are conducting “jihad” religious war. If and when the jihadist “soldiers of Allah” succeed in their jihadist conquest, the non-Muslims have only one of three options: 1) convert to Islam; 2) surrender and agree to be part of Islamic Sharia-ruled society as second class citizens with only limited rights by acknowledging the superiority of Islam through paying annual “jizya” – that is, mafia-like “extortion-protection money,” or 3) resist and fight to the death.

Islamic jihad is the “forever war” because Muhammad declared he had been
ordered by the Islamic god Allah to fight until all non-Muslims declare their
allegiance to Allah and Muhammad: “I have
been commanded to fight people until they testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is
the Messenger of Allah.” The recitation pledge
that Muhammad demanded of non-Muslims is the Islamic creed or oath of belief (“Shahada”) signifying religious conversion to Islam: “There is no god but Allah, Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.”
(The Islamic “Shahada” is comparable to the Christian “Nicene Creed” and the Jewish “Shema Yisrael.”) Muhammad
is considered by Muslims to be the “perfect man” that all Muslims are exhorted to emulate, so Muslims are enjoined in
this declaration to fight like Muhammad until the worldwide victory of Islam is
achieved. One of the “forever war” Quranic injunctions that Muhammad was
encapsulating with his never-ending war declaration is contained in Sura 8:39: “And fight them [non-Muslims] until there is no
fitna [disbelief, or the disorder that results from unbelief in
Islam] and (until) the religion, all of it, is for Allah.”
So, to summarize, the United States Government is confronted by Islamic
enemies from both the Sunni and Shia sects. These Islamic sects are in fact
existential adversaries of the U.S. Constitution and advocates of the Islamic
Sharia in its place; hence Islamic Sharia religious-political doctrine is a
nemesis of the very idea of the liberties, freedoms, and separation of church
and state embodied in the U.S. Constitution and U.S. legal system. Furthermore,
Islamic scripture calls for Muslims to wage war without end until they succeed
in Islamizing the entire world. The strategy of jihad warfare is that, once
Sharia jurisprudence is instituted as the law of the land, all obstacles
(human, legal, and cultural) to making Islam the sole, dominant religion can be
systematically removed.
Enemy Divisions
However, besides conducting the jihadist war on the U.S., the Sunni
Salafi Wahhabis and Shia Khomeinist Twelvers are engaged in an Islamic
sectarian religious civil war to convince the umma that theirs is the ascendant
Islamic jihadist sect to follow. This same competition between Sunni and Shia
has been continuous in various forms and intensities since the death of
Mohammed in the 7th century. These sects have cooperated in the past
1400 years in waging jihad against the “infidel” West, so the West should not
be surprised should they do it in the future, but at this time the Sunni
Salafist Wahhabis and Shia Khomeinist Twelvers are so fanatically committed to
destroying each other that the twofold Islamic threat facing the U.S. currently
must be understood within that sectarian existential paradigm.
Furthermore, the battlefield has yet another complicating factor in
order that the conflict be accurately understood. It is that the Sunni Salafi
Wahhabi force component is divided further into three subdivisions competing to
be recognized as the preeminent Sunni leadership. Among the warring sub-sects
is al-Qaeda along with multiple al-Qaeda-allegiant groups around the world in
Pakistan, Afghanistan, Syria, Sinai, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Egypt, Libya,
Algeria, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia,
Uzbekistan, Somalia, and Europe. Opposing al-Qaeda for the mantel of Sunni
leadership is the Islamic State and its numerous Islamic State-allegiant groups
in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Egypt, Libya, Algeria,
Tunisia, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Sinai, Indonesia, Philippines, and Europe.
The third Sunni contender for power is more nebulous and operates in a covert,
psychological warfare and seditious mode, which make it a very
difficult-to-counter, shadowy threat. This seditious Sunni entity is the Muslim
Brotherhood anchored in the U.S., Qatar, Turkey, Egypt, Gaza, and Europe. While
the Muslim Brotherhood is not the same type of armed kinetic threat as al-Qaeda
or the Islamic State, it is as great or greater threat because they are now
very successfully carrying out subversive preparation of the operational
battlespace on the U.S. domestic front by silencing criticism with
“Islamophobia.”
Dispelling A Myth
There is one additional point that requires clarification to understand
the complex, multifaceted, simultaneous war within Islam and against the U.S.
and the rest of the non-Muslim world. That point is the fact that Islam is a
creed based on firm scriptural doctrine contained in the Quran (reputedly the
verbatim words of the Allah god), the Hadiths (collections of the reports of
the teachings, deeds and sayings of the Islamic prophet Muhammad), and the Sira
(biography of Muhammad). These three doctrinal sources are together referred to
as the Sunna, which is the basis for Islamic Sharia canonical law prescribing
both religious and secular duties and retributive penalties for lawbreaking.
That the Sunna and Sharia are the doctrinal foundation of Islam negates the
contention that, because not all Muslims are jihadists or accept the violent
jihadist injunctions, Islam is “moderate.” It does not matter how individuals
or even groups of Muslims believe or interpret Islamic scripture, what matters
is what is recorded in the Sunna and Sharia. Individuals and groups come and
go, but the Sunna and Sharia are unchanging. Moderate Islam is a mythical
deception. There may be moderate individual Muslims, but there is no moderate
Islam. Sharia-allegiant Muslims, Sunni and Shia, are committed to the
fundamental Islamic organizing principle – spreading Islam through spreading
the Sharia. It is those Sunni and Shia Sharia-allegiant Muslims that should be
the focus of U.S. security concerns.
The On-Going War Across Jihadistan
At present there are tri-cornered conflicts occurring in Iraq-Syria,
Afghanistan, Yemen, and Libya. And of course those clashes don’t include the
Islamic jihadist insurgencies in Somalia, Kenya, Nigeria, Chad, Niger,
Cameroon, Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand to name some of the better
known. But the hostilities of immediate concern to the U.S. are the ones in
Iraq-Syria, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Libya.
In the Iraq-Syria struggle the U.S. is providing combat air support to
the Iranian dominated Shia Government of Iraq, thus putting the U.S. on the
Shia Khomeinist Twelver side against the Sunni Islamic State Salafist Wahhabis.
In Afghanistan the U.S. is fighting the Taliban, which is the stalking horse of
the al-Qaeda Sunni Salafist Wahhabis, while the Islamic State Sunni Salafist
Wahhabis are also in Afghanistan fighting against the Taliban, U.S., and the
Shia Khomeinist Twelvers. In Yemen the U.S. is aligned with Sunni Saudi Arabia
in their war against the Shia Houthis, the surrogate for the Iranian Shia
Khomeinist Twelvers. The paradox from the U.S. point of view is that oil-rich
Wahhabis in Saudi Arabia are the clandestine financial backers of the Islamic
State Sunni Salafist Wahhabis that the U.S. is fighting in Iraq-Syria. In Libya
al-Qaeda Sunni Salafist Wahhabis are vying with Islamic State Sunni Salafist Wahhabis
for supremacy of the U.S.-created political and social morass. The U.S. is
primarily a helpless spectator to this internecine Libyan Sunni blood-letting.
In the U.S. itself the Muslim Brotherhood has managed to purge FBI and U.S.
military training materials of accurate jihad information and counter-jihad
tactics by convincing the White House that these things were politically
incorrect Islamophobia.
What’s Wrong With This Picture?
The U.S. is aligned against itself. In the Iraq-Syria theater the U.S.
is actively assisting the Shia against the Sunnis. In Yemen the U.S. is
supporting the Sunni side against the Shia. In Afghanistan the U.S. is aligned
with a Sunni government against the Sunni Taliban surrogate of the al-Qaeda
Sunni Salafist Wahhabis. In Libya the situation is spinning out of control as
the two Sunni components battle, while the U.S. is a paralyzed observer. In the
U.S. the Obama regime has opened many channels to the Muslim Brotherhood in
order to receive its guidance for countering Islamic jihad. And finally the
Obama regime says it is on the verge of concluding a treaty with the Iranian
Shia Khomeinist Twelvers that guarantees they acquire nuclear weapons,
according to the treaty in a decade or sooner by cheating.
Obvious Conclusions
The first obvious conclusion is that the Obama regime has absolutely no
coherent strategy to repel the Islamic enemy.
The second obvious conclusion is that the U.S. has dual Islamic enemies
that are Sunni and Shia Sharia-allegiant Muslims.
The third obvious conclusion is that the Muslim Brotherhood and its
various front organizations operating in the U.S. are covert agents of Islamic
jihad and must be exposed as such and be removed from all positions of
government policy influence.
The fourth obvious conclusion that any treaty that puts nuclear weapons
in the possession of Shia Khomeinist Twelvers is absolute insanity and needs to
be stopped.
The fifth obvious conclusion is that the U.S. desperately needs to
finally stop dealing with Islamic jihad by employing tactical crisis management
solutions and adopt a comprehensive strategy which is based on the reality that
the U.S. loses regardless who triumphs in the Islamic religious sectarian war:
Islamic State Sunni Salafist Wahhabis, al-Qaeda Sunni Salafist Wahhabis, Sunni
Muslim Brotherhood, or Shia Khomeinist Twelvers. The U.S. has no allies that
share our values in any of these Islamic groups. In fact, each of these Islamic
groups is dedicated to replacing the U.S. Constitution with the Islamic Sharia
jurisprudence. They are all existential enemies.

We already know that the global banksters want to rule the world through
a UN “front group”. We also know that
ISLAM wants to be out one-world government.
Everything these two groups are attempting to achieve means the end of
the US. We need to remove all
politicians that help these two groups to advance their plans. That means we need to demand “No” votes on
TPP, refugees, illegal aliens, excessive legal immigration, local Agenda 21
ordinances, federal activities and state enabling legislation.
Politicians with high scores, 80 and above, on websites like
electtherightcandidate.us, the Club for Growth, Conservative Review, New
American Freedom Index, Numbers USA and Heritage Action are the only candidates
we should re-elect. Their legislative records produce these scores. They are
Constitutional Conservatives. They vote against Bills that are
unconstitutional. Politicians who vote
for TPP should not be re-elected.
